In a statement titled “Lifting of Suspension of Acting Zonal Secretary of the PDP South South Zone George Turnah By the Bayelsa State Working Committee” and signed by the zonal organizing secretary, Arch. Ekom Nsed Akonjom, he said that the decision was reached during a meeting held on February 18, 2025, after reviewing Turnah’s appeal.

However, a High Court sitting in Yenagoa, on Tuesday issued a restraining order stopping the newly appointed Acting Zonal Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Barr. George Turnah from acting in his new office.

The Court in suit number BYHC/YHC/CV/73/2025, also granted an interim injunction restraining Turnah from participating and attending any meeting or carrying out any function as a member or officer of the Peoples Democratic Party pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice.

According to Arch. Akonjom, the committee found merit in Turnah’s appeal after carefully examining the party’s constitution, adding that the relief he had sought has been granted, and his suspension officially set aside.

He emphasized that its decision was based on the powers conferred upon it by the PDP constitution, reaffirming its authority in resolving internal party disputes at the zonal level.

He said, “The Nigerian public is hereby notified that the Zonal Working Committee of the People’s Democratic Party South South Zone met at 8am today 18th February, 2025 and considered and appealed brought by its Acting Secretary George Turnah (MON) on his suspension by the Bayelsa State Working Committee.

“After careful consideration of the appeal and taking into consideration the relevant provisions of the Party’s Constitution, the Committee found that the appeal has merit and accordingly granted the relief sought therein.

“Consequently, the suspension of George Turnah (MON) by the Bayelsa State Working Committee is hereby set aside and lifted by powers conferring on the Zonal Working Committee of the Party, South South Zone. The public is hereby advised to note the setting aside and lifting of the suspension.”
